The industry is represented by the Romanian Fintech Association (RoFintech), which has 22 members. While the total number of employees of the companies participating in the survey is 397, the average number of employees per company is almost 20, with a minimum of 1 employee and a maximum of 100.

The report reveals that the industry is highly concentrated in terms of turnover, with more than 75% of revenues in 2021 coming from digital payments fintechs (mobile payments, money transfers, e-money issuers, access points and other payment-related services).
